Panel
Upgrades.

Tripping breakers, an old fuse box, or no room for new circuits? We upgrade homes from 100A to 200A service — load calculated, permitted, and inspection-passed the first time.

Why Upgrade

When 100 amps isn't enough anymore.

Tucson homes built decades ago were wired for a different era — before central AC ran all summer, before EVs, before a kitchen full of modern appliances. If your breakers trip, your panel is a fuse box, or an electrician has told you the panel is "full," you have outgrown your service.

A 200-amp panel upgrade gives your home the capacity it needs and replaces aging equipment that can be a fire risk. We start every job with a proper load calculation so the new panel is sized for how you actually live — including future plans like an EV charger, a pool, or an addition.

We handle the coordination with Tucson Electric Power for the service disconnect and reconnect, pull the permit, and schedule the inspection. You get a clean, labeled, code-compliant panel and a single point of contact through the whole process.

What's Included

Every panel upgrade includes

A panel upgrade is more than swapping a box — here is the full scope:

Signs You Need One

Watch for these warning signs

01

Breakers Trip Often

Frequent trips mean circuits are overloaded — a sign the panel can't keep up with demand.

02

Fuses, Not Breakers

Old fuse boxes and certain recalled panel brands are known hazards and should be replaced.

03

No Room to Add

A full panel with no open slots blocks EV chargers, additions, and new circuits.

04

Warm or Buzzing Panel

Heat, buzzing, scorch marks, or a burning smell are urgent — call us right away.

Good to Know

Frequently asked questions

How much does a 200-amp panel upgrade cost in Tucson?

Cost depends on whether the meter base and service conductors also need replacing, the condition of the existing grounding, and any utility coordination required. We give you a firm written quote after assessing your panel so the number you see is the number you pay.

How long does a panel upgrade take?

Most residential panel upgrades are completed in a single day. Power is off for part of that day while we swap the panel; we coordinate timing with you and the utility so the outage is as short as possible.

Do you pull the permit and handle the utility?

Yes. We pull the electrical permit, coordinate with Tucson Electric Power for the service disconnect and reconnect, and schedule the inspection. You never have to deal with the city or the utility yourself.

Is an upgrade required before installing an EV charger?

Not always — it depends on your panel's spare capacity. We run a load calculation first. If your panel can handle the EV circuit, no upgrade is needed; if it's full or undersized, we'll quote both together.
